*Too Much To Lose: Chapter 7*
If The Only Place We Could Meet Was In My Dreams, I Would Sleep Forever.

Sorry for making you guys wait 2 months for the next chapter! I've been mad busy with everything that's been going on!

I was trembling on the inside, but my face showed no signs of fear on it. A small smile trickled across my face at the sight of Taichi. The world just stopped and for moment I felt as though we were back in college, locked away in his room, like we had done so many times before. However, my fantasy soon ended when a small boy tugged on my skirt and looked at me his eyes full of tears. "Uhm.Hello there" I was quiet stunned by the boys distraught face. "Are you Sora?" The dirty blonde boy asked innocently. "Yamatto Taichi Taikiwa! What did I tell you about talking out of term?" "But Mommy.I just want to know if she is Daddy Tai's dream girl." The little boy protested. I blushed a bit, and my heart began to dance he spoke of me. Tai's face on the other hand turned beat red with embarrassment. "Well this is rather awkward isn't it?" Taichi stated while turning away for a moment. I nodded and smiled. "Oh, well." I said while I noticed Taichi starting at my left hand. "Sora.where's your engagement ring? Was Matt to cheep to buy you one...? That cheep bastard!" Taichi said rambling on, until I stopped him. "Uhm.acutely.called the wedding off." I stated holding my head low with a bit of regret. I never thought I'd feel regret for calling it off, but for some reason I did. "WH-what? Why? Not enough time, not enough money?" "We broke up." I plastered a smile upon my face, as fear and anguish prodded the inside of body like a thousand needles. As confusing as this may sound and stupid, I did care for Yamatto, not in the same way that could never be. it's just he had become such a part of my life.that not staying up until 4:30 in morning almost every night to talk about everything and anything that was on our minds. I missed having someone walk me across campus to my class, I missed having him take me out to dinner, I missed being able to kick his butt with my karate moves.I just missed my best guy friend; and I just wanted to hang out with him again. We hadn't talked since that day. he was always busy, or I was always out. But everything would be okay now, Taichi was here, and that was all that mattered to me.

"Oh, Sora." Mimi grabbed me into a hug. "I'm so sorry, are you okay?" "Yes, I'm just fine.and so isn't he.were just not mad for one another." I explained and Mimi nodded. "Hey. why you marry my daddy?" Matt asked rather confused. "Marry your daddy.? You mean." I looked at Mimi.in disbelief. "He's Yama's son?" "Yes." Mimi said while smiling brightly and picking up her son. "Sora I'd like you to meet my son.Yamatto Taichi Taikiwa." I looked at the little boy, how could I have not guessed, he has the same adorable face as Matt, and those two blue eyes are a dead give away. "Oh, my goodness, he's so cute!" I cooed as I saw the joy in Mimi's eyes as she revealed her secret to me. "It must be hard raising him.all alone." I stammered. "I'm not alone, I have Taichi, he helps take me take care of him, and he helps me with everything he's just an amazing person." I smiled knowing she was right. "Taichi, why didn't you ever tell me?" I asked. "I couldn't." He said and before he could say anymore I realized that we had been standing in the airport for almost an hour. "Hey not to kill our social affair but why don't I get you guys home?"

Meanwhile.

"Takeru! How many times are you going perfect your hair today?" Hikari called from the kitchen. "I'll stop when you're done organizing all the pictures of the family and all our friends for what the 10th time?" "12th." "My point rests." "Hunny.come here." "Something wrong?" "No, but.the baby just kicked." "You mean it really kicked? Its not tapping anymore it's kicking?" "Yeah.come here I want you to feel it." Takeru rushed out of the bathroom, to Hikari smiling, her hand rested on her midriff. "Where is it Hun?" Takeru asked eager to have contact with his first son or daughter, well contact as in acutely feeling the something.rather then staring at Hikari's swollen tummy. Hikari moved his hand to her lower left side and rested it there. She smiled at Takeru who was more then amazed. "Hikari." Takeru murmured before kissing her lips and gently caressing her stomach. Hikari giggled as Takeru eased her back onto the couch, while still kissing her. "You'll mess up your hair." "Does it look like I'm concerned?" Hikari giggled again and wrapped her arms around Takeru holding him close to her. They were just getting into the mood when a knock emerged from their apartment front door. "Do I have to?" Takeru asked while then motioning towards the door. "It's probably Sora, with Taichi and Mimi, of course you do!" Hikari bubbled. "Besides.you wait till later on tonight." she whispered with a wink. "Alright, sounds good." Takeru said while lifting himself off Hikari. "By the way did you ever tell Taichi you were pregnant?" "No, I never wanted to burden him and make him feel obligated to come visit us." "Alright.what about your parents did they ever spill?" "No, they didn't want to bother him either." "So it'll be a surprise..." "HELLO ANYONE HOME?!?" Sora called from outside the door. "Sorry Sora, I'll be right there." "Very much so." Hikari smiled. Takeru nodded and went to get the door. He slowly opened the door revealing Sora, Mimi and Taichi. "What took you so long?" Sora said exasperated. "The baby kicked for the 1st time, we were both very engrossed with it." Taichi stared at Takeru, he's changed so much, he dresses so much different and his hair., but he acts the same. "Hey Taichi, Mimi how ya been?" Takeru asked while extending a hand to Taichi and then hugging Mimi. "Not too bad, yourself?" Taichi asked. "Oh, pretty damn good." "That's good, to hear.now what's this about a baby kicking?" Taichi asked quiet confused. But before Takeru could answer Hikari appeared in the hallway. "Takeru where are your manners let them in would you!" Hikari bubbled. "Oh, jeez, I'm sorry. c'mon on in and let me show you around the house." Takeru said. Mimi and Sora bolted in whereas Taichi just stood and looked at his sister. "What happened to you?" He asked staring at Hikari. "Uhmm. I guess I should have told you.Takeru and I got married a year ago.and as you can see.were kind of expecting our first child." Hikari smiled. Taichi once again stood looking at his sister mouth wide open.

To be continued. I know this chapter really was stupid and served no purpose but I had to introduce Hikari and Takeru into the plot because they are a major part of this story.I just hadn't really included them until now.I'm not sure what the baby's going to be yet a girl or a boy.and I'm having a lot of trouble deciding so leave me a review telling me what you thought of the chapter and what you think the baby should be. a boy or a girl (! Until next week when I'll have the next chapter up..
